The US tech. giant Apple has agreed to pay 60 million US dollars to settle its trademark dispute with the Chinese company Proview Technology, registered in Shenzhen. The Higher People’s Court of Guangdong Province announced the verdict on Monday.
Apple’s settlement offer was made to gain back full possession of iPad’s trademark, made effective last Monday. The dispute dated back to 2009 when Proview Shenzhen claimed it held the rights to use the trademark IPad name in China's mainland, even though Apple bought the rights from Proview Taipei in 2009.
